Story
Mia is a super sweet 41 lb bulldog mix. Mia has been sweet and gentle with people and other dogs alike. She currently lives with a 25 lb poodle mix she loves to play with. Mia is young and loves to play, but overall she's pretty laid back and doesn't need a ton of exercise to be happy. She loves playing with toys. Mia is mostly house trained and does fine either in a crate or free roaming in the house. She takes a second to warm up to new people but once she does is super snuggly and affectionate. This girl will make one lucky family very happy!

Story
Biscotti is an adorable, playful, 41 lb bulldog mix. He enjoys daily walks and playing with toys. Biscotti seems to have some basic training and is very well behaved indoors. He is house trained and does well in a crate. He is very food motivated which makes him very trainable! Biscotti is very excitable and likes to jump up on people. His energy would probably be too much for small children, so this guy is looking for a home with adults only or dog-savvy kids 12+. Biscotti generally does fine walking past other dogs on leash, but does need work on his leash training. He prefers to soak up all the human attention for himself and should be the only dog in the home. We’re learning more about him every day and will update his bio soon.

Story
I am in a foster home and not at the shelter. If you are interested in adopting, submit an adoption questionnaire by email. Learn more hereMeet Miss Piglet. The cutest little russet potato you will ever meet. Three years old, 50 pounds, and shaped like someone tried to sculpt a bodybuilder out of cookie dough. Her muscles say "I could pull a small car" while her personality whispers "I would prefer to nap, thanks." Her ears are cropped, which only adds to her whole aesthetic of "tiny wrestler who secretly wants to be a throw pillow." When she trots around, she sounds like someone dropped a small ham on hardwood floors. And when she settles in for snuggles, she lets out a pleased little grunt that proves she is part dog, part pig, and part sentient heating pad. Miss Piglet has perfected the dramatic flop, the heartfelt stare, and the art of rearranging herself on top of you like you are custom furniture. She's snuggly in the way that interrupts your day and derails your plans, and you will let it happen every time. She's not here for Best in Show. She's here to claim your couch, your heart, and whatever blanket you weren't using fast enough. And she will. Because Miss Piglet is absurd, endearing, and very ready for her forever person.

Story
Meet Ivory — A Beautiful Soul with a Smile as Big as Her Heart Ivory is a stunning 2-year-old, all-white pittie with a heart full of love and a smile that could light up any room. She came to us from Oakland Animal Services after running out of hope — and time. After swallowing a toy in the shelter, Ivory underwent major surgery and made a full recovery in a loving medical foster home. Sadly, going back to the shelter left her anxious and stressed. Thankfully, her amazing foster family welcomed her back, and she’s now thriving. At 56 pounds, Ivory is the perfect medium-large size — strong enough for adventures, yet the ultimate snuggle buddy. She’s doing great with house and crate training, and loves having structure and routine. Ivory is a medium-energy girl who enjoys hikes, long walks, and car rides, but she’s just as happy rolling in the grass or cuddling on the couch. Her joy is infectious — she’s always smiling, and her photos could melt even the coldest hearts. We’re still learning her quirks. She can be a bit cautious with new people or sudden changes, but warms up quickly with gentle handling. She’s affectionate, goofy, and wants nothing more than to love and be loved. Ivory enjoys other dogs, especially those her size or larger who match her respectful, playful energy. Because of her strength and sensitivity, she’d do best in a home with big-dog or pittie experience — someone who can offer consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement. Ivory is smart, eager to please, food-motivated, and a fast learner. She just needs someone willing to guide her with love and celebrate her progress. If you’re looking for a loyal, resilient, and affectionate companion who’s ready for hikes, snuggles, and non-stop smiles, Ivory may be your perfect match.

Big Boy is a pure Bully Bread. He's a loving dog that's gets along with other dogs and loves kids. He's Cage trained if your keeping him in the house but requires walking for bathroom usage. Unfortunately with my recent job role i just can't give him the time he needs. I want him to go with a loving family if possible.

Story
Meet Maple - Our Lovely Golden Girl with a Spark!Maple is a gentle, loving older lady with a heart full of sweetness and a nose that can find a treat from a mile away! Snacks are absolutely the way to her heart - but she also has a delightful amount of pep and enthusiasm for life.This beautiful senior girl may have a calm, kind spirit, but don't let her gray hairs fool you - Maple loves to get up and go. She has plenty of energy and enjoys lively walks, exploring the world with a happy tail, and engaging with her people. After her adventures, she's equally content to settle in for cozy naps and soak up affection.Maple came to us with a mammary tumor that was removed during her stay in our care. While testing showed that it had likely already metastasized, she currently shows no signs of illness. Her expected survival could be two years or more - but even if her time may be somewhat shorter, that only makes it more important that she find her forever home soon, with someone who will cherish her golden days.Maple is a "Pawspice" adoption, meaning the East Bay SPCA will provide specific ongoing support for her care going forward. Come meet this lovely, spirited girl to learn more and see if she's the one who'll brighten your home. Primary Color: Brown Secondary Color: White Weight: 60.2 Age: 8yrs 0mths 3wks
